An Albatross: not just a bloody big bird, but also a band! A band on tour! Wow!

Don't wander too close to the front, really: one of An Albatross' first-ever shows saw their singer strip naked and then hospitalise himself. Now, we wouldn't want you getting similarly hurt... or naked.

The out-there but over here sextet do things with guitars and organs - electronic and organic - at dates you can go to, providing you're not at the dentist's or your granny's waiting for her sausage lattice thing to finish baking. G'wan, push her in when she checks the pastry, then get along to...
